in the case of hurricane sandy, 1,000 websites were created within a week. so that gives you a sense of the scale of how these things can be. our concern is that the amount of oversight capacity of the government is quite limited and is shrinking while this kind of abuse seems to be steam rolling and there's more and more of it we see. especially this year when we had a number of tragedies. >> are authorities outnumbered or can they do something to stop this? >> they're definitely outnumbered. the irs and state attorney general offices have long been far behind in keeping up with these things. and now as the government is shrinking, there is more of a problem. unfortunately, it requires the work of cnn and other investigative reporters to bring it to light, and sometimes the e embarrassment to force the government to get involved, so there is a lack of oversight there and a need for far more enforcement. >> i'm sure you're concerned people at home are listening and saying maybe i shouldn't donate. maybe it makes them afraid to donate. what do you say to them
